Volume 3 Chapter 61
Clean Up
On the night of the day Apristos attacked Alheim and was defeated and driven back by Haruto.
「Damn it! Why!?」
On top of a mountain overlooking the Royal Capital of Alheim, a demon was beating up something.
The battered body of the former general of the Alheim Army was lying around next to that demon.
The demon that was punching something was Amon, who had made a contract with the former general.
After they made their contract, Amon took away the former general’s soul and possessed his body.
Unfortunately, the former general’s body became useless, and so, he was hitting something that was impeding his escape.
「Why can’t I get out!? What’s with this barrier!」
Amon was trapped in a dome barrier with a radius of about three meters.
Even with the power of the demon Amon, he couldn’t destroy it at all.
No matter how many times Amon attacked, the barrier just didn’t budge.
「Damn!!!」
It wasn’t supposed to be like this.
Originally, by now, he should have been able to bring down Alheim and plunge the elves into despair and fear.
And the huge amount of negative energy that would have been harvested would have been used to feed the Evil God, who was Amon’s Master.
But he was prevented from doing so by a single human being.
「That human, Haruto, or whatever he’s called. I’ll remember you… I’ll kill you right away as soon as I get out of here, just wait!!!」
There was a figure approaching the mumbling Amon.
「Hmmm, so you’ll kill me, huh?」
「!?」
Haruto came to check on Amon.
「Well, you have to get out of that barrier first, right? If you can get out, then come and try to kill me then」
「You bastard! I knew it. This barrier is really your—」
「Right. I knew a demon wouldn’t die so easily. The moment I punched you, I placed a spell on you which will expand into a barrier whenever you hit something.」
The barrier placed on Amon locks the target’s position and repels any attacks made from within.
When Haruto punched Amon and slammed him into the mountain, a barrier unfolded that prevented Amon from moving from this place.
In order to keep the demon, Amon, from escaping, he created a barrier by weaving together various inhibiting and obstructive magic.
Amon couldn’t use magic inside the barrier, so he had no choice but to use his bare hands to tear down the barrier.
「I don’t like killing something that has a human form, but some other country may experience misfortune if I let you go」
When saying that, Haruto raised his hand high to the sky.
「Wha, what’s that magical power! Wa, wait, wait! I’ll do anything! I swear, I won’t harm anyone ever again! So, so please, forgive me!」
Amon saw Haruto as being more of a demon than himself.
It was because of the colossal amount of magical power being directed to himself.
He was sincerely begging for the first time in his life.
But to no avail,
Haruto swung his arm down.
「Holy Lance!」
A gigantic spear, far removed from its original form, pierced through the barrier and Amon.
「Dam—」
Amon’s entire existence was completely purified by the [Holy Magic]. The former general’s body also disappeared at the same time
「I defeated a demon for the time being. If I’m not mistaken… Amon must have ranked 7th among the demons serving under the Evil God. At least, I confirmed that the barrier was also effective against demons」
Haruto thought about the situation on his own.
Haruto’s ultimate goal was to get a shot at the Evil God, who had killed him.
To achieve his goal, he used Amon as a guinea pig to test his current ability.
Without being too proud of his achievements, Haruto continued improving his power in order to defeat the Evil God.
Haruto then teleported back to where his wives were waiting for him to return
